Ramblings

I know that a lot of people are concerned about the bees and the fact that they are disappearing at an alarming rate. I share their concern even though I don't really care for bees because I am allergic to them. Still I don't mind having them as neighbors. Lately however I have been dealing with them as roommates as some carpenter bees have invaded my bedroom! We are having a war with them trying to convince them to pull up stakes and choose another home. Thank goodness they don't seem to be aggressive.

Last Saturday I was to get together with some ladies from my Red Hatter chapter, have some lunch and go to the zoo. Great plan except the weather decided to be too hot. I ended up joining them for lunch and then headed home to die in the heat. Oh and wage the war against the bees.

That gorgeous artwork is from a mural painted on the side of the Antique Sandwich Factory where I met everyone for lunch. I highly recommend this shop to any of the locals. They have wonderful quiches and sandwiches.

I have found that as I get older, I am happier with my body. I used to get so upset about the fact that though I am top heavy, I don't really have anything behind to counter balance. Now I am just happy about the fact that I can get away with going bra less. I haven't gained much weight even though I don't have the discipline to watch my diet or exercise. Heck, now I am happy that for the most part my body still works.

I wish that I was someone that was good with lists. I find that as I am getting older, I tend to forget things. I try to remember to add it to lists on my phone but then I forget to check it. And who decided that 9 am is a good time for a reminder?

I received my subscription for Bargain Bead Box. It's that dragonfly gorgeous. And a lot of cubes. That's not a shape that I tend to work with so I have a bit of a challenge as I want to use at least some of all of beads.

Managed to use some of them including that gorgeous focal. Hoping to use more tomorrow and I will have to show you the pics next week.
